To be honest..I wish I had my mom’s old Maytag wringer washer.

The Maytag repairman was the loneliest guy in town.

Yes, mine last about that many years too. That was when a Sears repairman told me..if I had used vinegar instead of liquid softener he wouldn't have been here. I've been using vinegar for many years now.

I still have my Maytag washer/dryer I bought in 1985. I am keeping them as long as possible. It does sound like my washer transmission (I think that is what it is called) is going out though. When I had the Maytag man out to put a new heating element in my dryer he said if the transmission goes in the machine it is doubtful if they could get the part and if they could it would cost more then a new machine.

I loved doing the wash in the old wringer washers. Got the laundry done so much faster.

Have you ever noticed how all this new stuff that was to make it so much easier takes SO LONG to do? I especially notice it at the grocery store when people are checking out. Takes two to three times longer then the old cash registers.

As promised, I found this video showing the scene of young musicians being literally pulled away by what seems to be plainclothes agents.
One source told me state police was also present at the scene.
RT to show the world the mullahs' ruthless nature...
